[dundee] Universities foster the next big tech innovation through open source

[gordon dunlop]

I thought this was an interesting article. The article reporters do not
quite catch on to the fact that University research, which is mainly about
collaboration with other University researchers, prefers open source where
code and openness are shared, modified  and peer reviewed to enhance
scientific quality and authenticity at minimal cost, i.e. brain sharing for
the benefit to the world-wide community. This will obviously filter down to
the students and show an alternative to how they work at universities where
this is encouraged.
